Yeo, they just have one shampoo and one conditioner of tresemme.0 -
I was under the impression that shampoos etc did have a shelf life. I might be wrong though, some say 12 months from opening others 24 but surely if it has been opened & sniffed in a shop it counts as being opened & you wouldnt know if the one you had brought was the 1 that had been opened. I might be completley wrong though.
I tend to use tresemme & like the others only get it when its on bogof which is often enough. the big bottle lasts me about 6 months.

I would say wait til boots has BOGOFs or triple points offers and stock up then. Or buy from QVC they do salon sized products. Wilkinsons does tresemmé CHEEEP which I think is just an ordinary shampoo given a pseudo-french name to make it sell more - it worked :rolleyes:

Presumably the US purchase involves actually going there?

I too use Aveda 1ltr bottles, but they cost over £20 here. Still worth it though imo.
Where in the UK do you buy Aveda 1 litre bottles? Now I've found Aveda I'd love to carry on using it.
Thanks

Well it does involve someone going there! I have a colleague and a cousin who travel to USA regularly and are happy to oblige as Aveda is easily available in shops there.
One litre bottles are available on several websites and cost about £30 but I feel that you more than reclaim back the cost by not needed colour done so often.Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0 -

You can usually get Aveda from specalist salons but also from larger branches of Debenhams. I get mine from Debenahams in Castlecourt in Belfast. Travelling from the North West of N.I. is cheaper than paying the P&P on QVC.Goal for 09: Get fit and foxy. target weight 11st. 5/80.Get out of dead end job and work for career I always wanted.0 -

But not as cheap as some of the other beauty websites. Some of them do Free P&P. Check on Kelkoo or similar.Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0 -
FYI, you can get 750ml of Pantene in ASDA for £3.48. 400ml of the same stuff normally costs me £3.09!0
